9/28/2011

Multnomah
Biblical Seminary's Institute
for the Theology of Culture: New Wine, New Wineskins was awarded a grant by
the Association of Theological Schools' (ATS) "Christian
Hospitality and Pastoral Practices in a MultiFaith Society" project. The aim of
the grant, which was awarded to various schools including Multnomah, is to help
prepare our seminary graduates to minister effectively in an increasingly
diverse religious and spiritual context. Our goal is to learn how to be
hospitable and love our neighbors of all walks of life while being true to our
Evangelical convictions.

Quotes

"We're
really grateful to ATS for the
grant and are excited about moving forward with this project," Dr. Paul Louis
Metzger said. "Students and graduates involved in
chaplaincy work are already experiencing the complex realities bound up with
ministering in multi-faith settings. Students and graduates in other vocations
will face similar experiences in our society. We think the grant will
really assist with helping our Seminary grads engage more effectively in our
increasingly diverse culture in truthful, meaningful, and loving ways."
